[Bug 378648] Re: segmentation fault when using cnee

Yes, the segmentation fault might be caused by the broken Record
extension of the X server. I still cannot believe how the developers of
xorg could break such an important extension which is used by dozens of
applications. On the other hand I'm very disappointed to see this broken
X server version in several releases of ubuntu (intrepid, jaunty,
karmic, and lucid). IMO it should have been rejected until this bug has
been fixed. I already tried to install the xserver from hardy in jaunty,
but I had several problem with the keyboard layout afterwards and did
not know how to fix them. Therefore I'll stay with hardy on most of my
systems.

BTW, there seems to be a progress on this issue:

I hope it will be fixed at least in lucid, because I don't want to stay
with hardy forever. (I'm already mixing hardy packages with karmic
packages and waiting for the big crash.)
